Is 200 Power Chip

[tama7]

hi all

a few weeks ago i posted a topic about powerchips i sent the ecu for my is200 to france to be chipped.glad to say that i got it back and car feels great rev's much faster and harder they cliam 30bhp with this programming package i cant say for sure until i get a dyno but i can def say that the cars feels alot more alive lower down and rev's very well on the way up.it cost me 350euro and i can really say its worth it and i would recommend this upgrade dont buy that crap on eBay check them out at powerchips.eu. the only thing i will say is it takes about a week to post and get back i was nervous for awhile they pay and record postage but my lexus is really going well just a pity they didnt do this from standard as it goes so well and feels better than ever.

I for one would love to see an independant Dyno report. Glad it seems to be working good for you :D

Hope it's worked out for you matey, 1 week turnarounds not bad considering it's got to get there get done and get back, the stock IS could do with about 50 more BHP IMHO so an extra 30's a good start (if the dyno run backs this up) but even if not any extra horse power is an improvement ;)

Well worth the money then, looks like i'll have to start saving again

would be interesting to see the results as i had a very bad impression from them and highly doubted the results...

350Euros for 30bhp.......hmmmm :winky:

there are some been to TDi and spent £5,000 to get less than that :o

but of course we do need to see an independant Dyno report against a standard IS200 on the same day.

I was under the impression the standard ECU couldn't be modified in this way ?

[Andy-R]

Can't really say without the results but if the improvement is that good especially at lower revs then worth a few quid maybe not £280 but worth looking into when the exchange rates drop

Hmm... interesting. I'd be interested in seeing dyno results to back this up aswell.
